A Paris, un cumul de neige (presque) jamais vu depuis 30 ans

Ce mercredi matin, 12 cm de neige ont été mesurés dans la capitale. Il faut remonter à 1987 pour trouver trace d’un cumul plus important.

Des toits recouverts d’un épais manteau blanc, des rues presque désertées par les automobilistes et des piétons s’avançant avec prudence pour éviter la glissade. Les Parisiens ont dû composer avec une neige tombée en abondance jusque dans la nuit de mardi à mercredi. A Paris-Montsouris, la station servant de référence dans la capitale, le cumul de poudreuse mesuré par Météo France atteignait ce mercredi à 5 heures du matin les 12 cm.

Un chiffre notable, car la barre des 10 cm n’a été dépassée qu’une seule fois ces trente dernières années. C’était il y a un peu plus de sept ans, le 8 décembre 2010, avec déjà un cumul de 12 cm. Pour retrouver des chutes de neige encore plus impressionnantes à Paris, il faut remonter au 16 janvier 1987, lorsque 14 cm de neige avaient recouvert la ville.

1709 et 1946, années record

En un peu plus d’un demi-siècle, le double décimètre de poudreuse n’a jamais été atteint. La dernière fois, c’était durant l’hiver 1966. Cette année-là, et plus précisément le 12 janvier, 20 cm de neige avait recouvert le parc Montsouris. Un cumul rarissime, mais qui fait pâle figure par rapport au record enregistré en mars 1946 avec 40 cm de neige mesurés !

Si l’on regarde à l’échelle des siècles, quand les relevés météo n’étaient pas aussi précis, le début du XVIIIe siècle était une période propice à l’avalanche de poudreuse. Durant l’hiver 1709, connu sous le nom de Grand hiver, environ 60 centimètres de neige seraient tombés à Paris.

La saison était si rigoureuse en France ainsi que le prix des céréales avait flambé en raison des gelées, provoquant émeutes et famine dans la capitale et dans le reste du pays. De quoi faire un peu relativiser les records de bouchon et les difficultés rencontrées dans les transports en commu depuis mardi.
